"It's a very nice party." "Boring," he chanted. "How can you stand it around here?" "Welcome to small-town America, Wesley," I said. "Last time I looked, they hadn't blockaded Route 64; you could leave any time." "Yeah, but what's the point?" he said. He sounded a little tipsy. "I had vacation coming to me, so I'm taking it while I can. You can be sure they won't pay me for it if the rag folds." "Is your paper going to fold?" I asked. Not that I cared one way or another about the Super Snooper.... Apart from scanning the headlines if the grocery line was running slow, I never paid the slightest attention to it. But this did rather cast Wesley's triumphant return to his hometown in a very different light.
    "Who knows?" he said, shrugging. "Whole industry's going down the tubes. Maybe I should do the whole roots thing, come back and work at the Town Crier." Or maybe not, I thought, since he'd left town one step ahead of several juicy libel suits. "I should think going back to the business magazine would be more interesting," I suggested.
